Well I have finally finished my Car stereo for now :) it was my 19th birthday yesterday and I got A new headunit. (although its been in for a week)

All in all the stereo sounds so fking good its not funny. The fact that its in a hatchback also helps, Its extremly loud and the sound quality is crisp and clear. Its one of those stereos you can FEEL the bass rather then hear it. I have spent about $2.7k on it, although the retail of it all is about $3.7k (Owner of maroochycarsound is a family friend)
I thought I would share it with you all so here is whats in it and some pics.

basically whats in it (without specs):
2 x 12" Eclipse Subs
Fusion 2 channel amp for subs
Eclipse 4 channel amp for speakers
Panasonic Headunit with works
5 1/4" Eclipse Coaxial speakers in the back
Fusion 4" Component speakers in the front
Fusion bass controller
phoenix gold wiring etc..


PICS:

And Finally the overview from behind the car:

If anyone else has any sound systems in their car please post them! I'd Be interested to see anyone elses systems!

looks kool, but i would have spent the cash on buying a better car

the sound system is worth more than the car ...

cars worth $5-6k and it does me just fine for now. gets me from point a to point b in comfort with a massage!! :P

im actually saving for a 94 to 96 skyline ER33 GTS... yes non turbo :( too young.. insurance will cost way to much :|
much like this one:

STUFF.

Very nice..

Spook, what sort of car have you got?

i'd post a pic of mine, but i'd hate to still your thunder

punker: its a 4 door r33 skyline

Nice sterio! Pitty about the car :-(

Dont see the need to put awsome sterio into s*** car :-( Probably rattles like the s*** house when base reverb hits is.

Also wtf is a bass controller or whatever?

im actually saving for a 94 to 96 skyline ER33 GTS

OH MY f***ING GOD, AN R33 SKYLINE!!!!

WOWOWOWOWOOWOWOWOWOOWOWOWOWOWWWWWWWWWW!!


pS; im drinking

subwoofa

fully shick bro

Where did you get all the fusion stuff from? Who installed it .. it looks professional like something my mates at JBHIFI would do with the non fully enclosed box (custom fit and cheep carpet) has some decent wire though

maxe sux

HI ASH!

so much sexual tension between spook and maxe. :O

No it doesn't rattle. only the number plates did, I siliconed them so thats not a problem anymore.
I got all my stuff from maroochy carsound except for the headunit which I got at wow car audio, because my brother knows the owner of it and got it for me.

I made the box myself, and its alot better then what you will find in car audio shops, its made to the specificly for those subs (1 and a half cubic foot of air behind each) and 12" of 4" pipe for the ports, carpeted it myself etc. All the holes joins are lined with silicon aswell.

I bought the stereo because I can just move it on to the next car and the next car after that. I just love good stereos so I bought it straight away. The car is great atm it uses hardly any petrol and thats what I need atm because im saving!

I'll post a picture of my stereo's later when I cbf going outside (which will be in about an hour when I venture out on a little journey down the road).

VR: Pioneer Head unit
no amps
4 x stock holden speakers

TD (gemini): Pionner head unit (older model than the VR's)
Kicker 300.4 (I think) amp bridged into 1 to run the 12" V-NET sub in the boot
Supercheap front 3way speakers

ph34r teh cheap setups, head unit probably cost more than all the speakers in the gemini put together lol.

All my stereo gear is in my cousins car haha, thats silly isnt it :)

All my stereo gear is in my cousins car haha, thats silly isnt it :)

more like he stole it, am i rite

More like ...hmm... no :)

I've got 4 speakers + some random Pioneer deck.

Car audio sucks, it weighs too much.

I've been toying with the idea of stripping my interior trim, but I haven't decided :/

Also Asta: if you don't already have a big fug-off alarm system, get one. Thieves are going to want that system :(

last edited by orbitor at 22:49:11 28/Feb/04

Nice system :D I've got a JVC mp3 headunit, very nice considering I paid 330 for it, with 50 free CDRs :p And two 4" Sony's in the front that were already in the car when I bought it, hehe. If it has rear speakers, they sure as hell don't work :p

yeh i know im getting a big alarm system put in next week. just gotta keep it safe until then :P

Fishwick you got a 4 door r33?
My dad has a 94 4 door r33 GTS and my bro has a 93 4 door r32 GTS, my dads runs 12's and my bro's runs 13's on the quarter mile at willowbank.

That is a nice stereo. I only have a cadence q4000 amp to poer speakers(got mounted in today :) ) Pioneer 6x9's - 330 watt, and pioneer 4 inch splits 100 watt. also pioneeer deh555omp head unit ( its pretty ) its so clear all i need is a sub :( but im poor :(

my dads runs 12's and my bro's runs 13's on the quarter mile at willowbank.

Post a piccy of the time sheet.

You do realise that the new Monaro GTS 330kw does a high 13.

A factory RS6 for a high 12 @ 337kw and $220

How does a 220-250kw car that weighs about the same do 12's and 13's.

To all the 12sec cars on this forum, show me the time sheet!

My 110kw 300kg bike + 100kg of me manages 12.3's I doubt your cars have the same power to weight.

PS: Fricken nice stero man.

hey, he said they were skylines (1 4 door!)
i believe him

I know Skylines are quick, realistically a low 14 is still fricken fast a high 13 is bloody fast and 12's are insane.

hey Gumby, they're obviously not stock...

Even if they are tweaked thats still some serious time to run 12's and still be drivable as a suburban taxi.

we want pics!

or a list of mods

yea definatly want pics

12's arent all that insane for a modded car, considering mine ran 13.3 out of the box, and trust me i almost fell asleep waiting for it to cross the line it felt that slow

dont underestimate the liners gumby, they cost more then s13's for a reason you know

edit* my last 33 gtst had 200rwkw and ran 13.3, and that was still with the factory turbo and ecu, just a few bolt on mods like cooler+exhaust really.

last edited by burt at 12:15:39 29/Feb/04

viper: no i dont own a 4 door skyline, punker asked what car spook owned and i said: its a 4 door r33 skyline

13.3 out of the box, what is it?

A 10 year old Skyline at factory release (= fresh engine) was probably capable of 14's. Untill you take it to to Willow and show me the time sheet I will be sceptical.

Sub 14 sec 1/4 mile as officated by Willowbank, sure with a huge tail wind you can get a .5sec assist but be real. If you modified they what mods. I've been on the car scene for 20 years and if I had just $1 for every 13sec car that couldn't I would own my RS6 dream car by now.

Mines a 95 model R33 GT-R

The first weekend I had the car i took it out there, if you really dont believe me I got the timesheet right here.

In the near future ill be using a new ecu, hks turbos, few other goodies and will easily be running 11's, and its an easy daily driver

Gumby: burt has posted his 13.3 timeslip for the GTS-T before.

My car would undoubtedly be a (high) 13 second vehicle as it stands, provided someone other than me was driving :P I got 16.027 on my first run ever, and my god was it a schmozzel hehe :D

Anyway for anyone interested, this is my Silvia project thread at OCAU:
http://forums.overclockers.com.au/showthread.php?s=&threadid=252042

I'm not doubting that a modified anything will do 13's, very few factory cars under 100k do 13's.

What is the adjusted time on the time sheet, the +/- wind factor?

here is a AutoSpeed article on the R32 GTS-T in it they state they think it would crack the 15sec mark, bit different to a sub 14sec. Mind you it is a R32, and I know they make huge improvements with th 33's.
http://www.autospeed.com/cms/A_0853/article.html?popularArticle

I'd link other articles but you need to register and pay money. These are real journo's that if anything understate performance long before overstating it.

http://www.jbskyline.net/R33/Sedans/Specs/
They say 14.3 for a stocker.

http://www.japanperformancedirect.com.au/nissan_skyline.htm
Also 14 for a GTS, mind you GTR is 13's which blows my 100k theory.

Ok this is why I'm a Doubting Thomas, in 1991/92 I owned a Brock VK Special which had a worked 308/stroked 330 with racing 327 heads and a s*** load of other work done to it, I broght it of a mate, it Dyno'd 500 at the wheels. With a strengthened 4 speed box (can't remember the brand, pretty shore it was a borg warner) which was high geared cause it was a 4, I could manage 14.1 constantly due to the gearing never bothere to change ratios cause it was already a pig to drive around town.

During the street meets at willow anyone runing a 12 was then unable to run until a roll cage was fitted for saftey reasons. Most of the turbo Skylines at the time (there wasn't too many then) would be beaten, although there was one that kick serious arse.

The most amazing car at the time was a mazda 323 rear wheel drive 1978/9 model that had some maxed out rotary in it doing low 12's.

I'm not into boy toys anymore and haven't been out their for a street meet in eons, I just find it hard to believe that a 20k secondhand 10+ year cars are doing 13's out of the box, I hope you understand my scepticism.

12 second 1/4 mile is insane for a road car. The skyline I went in a few days ago does low 12's and is very capable of doing 11's. It probably does 11's now actually lol. Has something like 340rwkw's.

I understand your scepticism, but I think the 20 years racing experience you have is from the 1970's

Dont believe everything you read. R32 GT-R's are claimed to be able to run 12.9 as alot of magazines/stats state, and they are able to be picked up from auctions in japan for <$10k in some instances if you want to do things the long way

I ran my 33 in the middle of summer, a 32 is a much lighter car, and if ran in cooler weather I would bet money it could make a 12 second pass stock.

Times have changed dood, dont underestimate these $10k jap turbo cars

As for the wind resistance, are you for real?

As for the wind resistance, are you for real?

Proper timing will have a wind factor calcultaed into it allowing for head and tail wind, it will give you an adjusted time, it the wind is above a certain speed the time will be recorded but will unable to be used for record.

gumby, get out there for another Test & Tune. You will see plenty of 13 second S13s, Skylines, RX7's, etc.

These are all mid 14 second cars stock. An exhaust, front-mount cooler, air filter, and upped boost will see them ALL doing (high) 13s provided the driver does a good job.

This is why Jap import turbos are so popular dude...

I'm not doubting that a modified car would run 13's and as I said previously GTR's seem to all do 13's stock. My mistake. I just find it hard that a 10+ year old "stock" car will be as fast if not faster than times recorded against the same car when they where new.

As you aluded to these have been modified.

I understand your scepticism, but I think the 20 years racing experience you have is from the 1970's

No 80's and it was mainly bikes, I went to a dozen or so street meets in 91-93 with car and bike. Yes I'm not up on the "turbo" caze of today, but a few mates are still playing with S13 and a S15 (the last Sliva what ever its called) and a plague of WRX's (one's an Evo6), all fast cars all are stock bar the S13 which is the slowest. I doubt any of these cars stock do 13's but perhaps we might find out.

the WRX does a stock 13.* i think.

omg make a new thread u boners. this is car audio, post car audio pics or stop crappin on about ur fully sik skyline with sik phat rims cooreeee modded to do 12's in 1/4 mile...

Its gotta be loud cause it doesn't go fast!

Nice headunit tho dude, I got the same one :)
They're worth about $600

Hehe I'm just stirring mate, I reckon the four doors actually looks nicer than the two doors, but the two door skyrices are quicker :)

ive explained it many times before
i need 4 doors because people are always in the backseat of my REAL car

You know, what is so cool about owning an r33 skyline...

We have become so materialistic, thinking we need to get a sweet car. when in reality, we must realise we have to give back to the community. We need to realise love is a far more expensive vehicle.

is he the dood that always wears a black nismo cap and is usually walkin around by himself?

i know everytime I used to go to test n tunes and sprint meets he was always walkin around checkin out cars, think I spoke to his son once or twice too if im thinkin of the same guy.

yeah thats him, spot on.

Viper your dad hurt his leg recently.. right?

If so I think I may know the old fella.

Sifnt T88 :D Who wants pics ;)

More like the new T88H-38GK plz

:-O whats this paragon

i dont have any pics atm, but im running a alpine 10" off a sony exploded 222w, 2 pioneer 6x9's, 4 inch splits at the front and some gaggin head unit

:-O whats this paragon

New massive turbo from Trust, came out a couple of weeks ago, looking at about $6000 for 1 of them.

http://t-club2000.ddo.jp/20040110U_1.jpg

anyone got a picture of that giant ship turbo or whatever it was? it was like 10x bigger than some guy next to it

nah loki your headunit is different to mine :P mines the top of the range panasonic goes for $730-$830 (depends where you go) yours goes for around $500 at JB-HiFi

they look pretty much identical though but mine has a few extras.

Yeah I missed the closeup of your unit and noticed a few differences after I posted =)

I got mine mainly for the chrome (lots of chrome on the old torry so it suits the style).

Any ideas on the differnces between the two?
I think yours has those little animations on it?
I (personally) couldnt see the point of spending extra $$ for some 3 or 4 10 sec animations playing over and over.
But if I had the money I would have gotten the top of the line one :)

Needless to say, its never in the car if I'm not in it and its stored in its case, you should remember to do the same for yours.

Nice setup though :)

yeh i always keep it with me, mine has 3 x RCA outputs (think yours has 2), subcontrol, 5v preout (think yours is 3.2), aux input remote and animations / movies.

and im getting an alarm system installed this week. whoever it was that gave it 2 months before half of it was flogged.. well I have had most of it for a good 6months and nothing has happened yet. Remember I don't live in brisbane, Trust me if It got stollen in caloundra I would be able to find out who did it. :)

My unit has the remote and subcontrol as well, although my remote got run over by a VN at a party as I dropped it =(, amazingly it still works... kinda, the circuit board is cracked or something cause if you bend it right, it works perfectly :P

Either way, couldn't give a s***, its easier to use the headunit itself than the remote anyway, except for skipping folders on mp3's. which I found the easiest solution was to just hit random until it chose a nearby number to the folder you want and then change from there...
heh.

What sort of animations/movies does it have?

So umm asta... I hear you live on the sunshine coast? whats your umm... address so I can check out ya car mate, also you said the alarm system isn't coming for a week right...?

i had a pretty weird sound system setup in my old car once..

i wouldnt consider a r32 gtr a piece of s***...

no, but i wouldnt consider spending $80k on it tho...

spook rocks

r32 gtr is madness, im unsure as to what car i'll be getting when i can afford it, but r32, r33 gtr's are main canidates.

There are alot of f***** commies in this thread (Hi: Enigma, Spook and Bandwagon riding Ditch).

Let me clear a few things up for you f***slaps.

1) I'm 18 now.
2) It's my 4th car.
3) It's none of your f***ing business how I spend my money or what I spend my money on.
4) Mis-Matched rims... Not my car you troll.
5) Shut the f*** up.
6) Jump off a cliff you f***ing f*****s el oh el.


Now that's been said:

And put an end to this f***ing pinky loving argument.

yeah back off you buncha scum bags!

got overboard Parag0n?

you can always tell 18 year olds with skylines have rich parents.

1) I'm 18 now.
2) It's my 4th car.

nuff said?

nar hes saved the majority of it from what he's said, and only a lil bit kicked in by an inheritance?. It's his money let him do what he wants, good on you paragon :D dont listen to these foo's

take it to heart son.

only a little bit kicked in by inheritance? you think any 18 year old kid can save up $80k to spend on their car?

if you have $80k you buy a house, not throw it into a $20k car to make the car worth maybe $25k when u go to sell it in a few years

if he wants to be an idiot thats decision!!

shame when he kills himself driving his fancy fanboy car there will be o money left for someone esle to inherit and do something useful with it.

thats if his car drives, or stays running;

although im sure he wont have any problems with a 15 year old performance car

i chose a nice car over a house, but im renowned for making bad money decisions
besides, i like renting;

I can't believe someone would post a pick of their car if it was an Excel... regardless of the decency of the stereo!! HAHA!.... sorry mate.... :-P

There are alot of f***** commies in this thread (Hi: Enigma, Spook and Bandwagon riding Ditch).

It's funny, because while I am not sure about ditch, you are totally dismissing the comments of people who actually have experience in buying imported cars.

Perhaps you should also import more buckets of sand to bury your head into.

And for the record, I have no comment on your gtr, I think it is cool. It just seems silly to ignore the sentiments of people who know what they are talking about.

I get good drift on my apollo maen!

Testify.....!!!

Sif buy a car over a house.
I just bought my parents 98 Camry for 10k.
It has a tape deck...and stock speakers :O
I AM FULLY LEET.

(btw a car gets you from A to B)

that said i would like some kinda cheap system, so i could plug an mp3 player in it :D

Go buy an MP3 head unit - $300 ffs! If you can afford a 10K car, you can afford that! For another couple hundred you would have decent speakers (they'd be spankloads better than what you have)! But yer, who really cares about car, as long as its not an Excel cos only total fags drive those, thems da facts; beleedat!

i couldnt live without my mp3 player in the car
sure the sound quality may be suspect (so ive been told, i cant notice it)
but i fookin love it

go get a cheapo jvc one fireblood
then crank your hardcore jams to your hearts content!!!!

yea well i dunno where that "ditch jumping on the bandwagon" s*** came from :S

hate excels with a passion...got rid of mine few mnths back but awesome sound asta

anarot, i doubt i could get speakers for a few hundred bux that would be spankloads better then mine..
you sir are a wankstain. You get what you pay for with sound gear.
And afro yes I hate excels too, excels after my model (the round bubbly poof ones) :P mine are alright great for fuel and smooth ride all I need for my first car.

burt forgot who paid for his gts-t

Guys... Any more pics of car sterios before i post mine?

2x15" & 4x 12" & 6 x 6" splits
all in a liteace van :-P

On a side note, wet night last night. Fun had by all.

I only brought it up because it seemed as though you were crying about a little rich kid

Asta you brainless dickeater I was talking to the guy with standard speakers, not you. You are obviously self obsessed. Maybe you should stop measuring your penis daily waiting for it to grow past 50mm and get a life. You are so gay, you don't even have the right to bag excels.

its funny how someone youve never met before seems to think they know everything about you, i'll tell you now cockstain, you got no idea.

tell me this, how old are you? you work fulltime? live with your parents? pay any board/bills?

when I was 20 I bought this house im living in now, from my own wages, i also bought this gtr, I aint gonna spell everything out for you cause your obviously a little spanker anyway

im sure if your dad wasnt on the dole and actually earned some cash he'd be happy to buy you a car one day.

Also dude can you give ms a larger pic of the send last photo.

Whats the dB rating of that ambulence... i think you couldnt sit inside it :-( Does it ever come to brisbane? I would love to see it in real life.

Goto love how it cant be registered ;-) Have to tow it everywhere.

Well Actually Burt since you have no clue, it was invited to Torana Nationals as a contender for the most original in best condition SL/R with a high chance of walking away with a trophy.

Secondly, SL/R 3300's are becomming rare as all f*** because everyone is butchering them with V8's, one in my condition is rarer than an SL/R 5000 in original/mint condition.

Its a collectors item and is increasing in value...
Even after rebuilding half the LHS to it, it's still increasing in value and the rebuild means jack s*** with all matching numbers and the rest of the car being original/mint.

The difference is Torana's have a huge history with alot of love for Torana's, your skyrice is a depreciating piece of plastic s*** with no Aussie history, no backing and just goes VROOM. Which in any case, I could make my car as fast as yours for a fraction of the price anyway.

Its simple really, all your car has is 'it goes fast weeeee', which any car can do with the money spent on it.

Depreciating Rice Box Vs. Appreciating Old Collectable Classic..

Yep, in 30 years I can see how yours would be worth more than mine.... not.
Deal with it, your car is nice adn goes fast, but it's nothing 'special' like you crack it out to be, its just another skyline.

You lose, Go directly to the corner and cry d*******, Do not pass go, Do not collect $200.

Pity, he could probably buy your car if he'd been able to collect that $200.

last edited by orbitor at 13:50:58 05/Mar/04

Because it's all about how expensive the car is, isn't it?

Yes, completely wrong.
I don't see Skyrice's being called collectors items.

Orbitor, A s***box Torana might be worth $200, but I could sell mine off for $6k+ to a collector easily.

That's pretty good considering they weren't worth that new (even after considering inflation), that price is only going higher and higher every year as more Torana's are wrecked, original ones butchered, and they get older.

If you can't see that antiques whether it be furtniture or cars are worth alot, you've been living under a rock your entire life.

But you know, old Cadillacs as an example only fetch $60k+ for no reason at all..

Spook needs to just stop wanking over his four door skyline and defending it, because the point wasn't whether Skylines are better than Torana's.
Fact of the matter is, they are better, they're faster and handle better.
Still nothing $$ thrown at the Torana can't fix (Maybe to not the same standard in handling but as far as speed goes we all know any car can be turned into a dragster).

I said they looked nice, they're depreciating in value though.
The point was, since you missed it.
That Burt's skyline is just 'another skyline', it's nothing special that he makes it out to be.

Special != fast and expensive factory dealer price

last edited by Loki at 14:00:00 05/Mar/04

Personal opinion, but id rather go fast and have fun now, rather than have a mint condition classic that I cant risk bumping/scratching/modifying.

I could make my car as fast as yours for a fraction of the price anyway.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

rice boys have rice dicks.

it was invited to Torana Nationals as a contender for the most original in best condition SL/R with a high chance of walking away with a trophy.

woopty f***in doo... and you walked away with nothing right?

The difference is Torana's have a huge history with alot of love for Torana's, your skyrice is a depreciating piece of plastic s*** with no Aussie history, no backing and just goes VROOM.

GTR's dont have no racing history? e.g owning holdens and fords in bathurst or anything crazy like that?

I could make my car as fast as yours for a fraction of the price anyway

I dare you to try.. no seriously

Yep, in 30 years I can see how yours would be worth more than mine

In 30 years my car wont have rusted out to nothing.

you say your car's worth $6k? ass. youd be lucky to get a couple hundred no matter how classic (read: rusted) it is. what you going to do with the $6000, retire and live overseas?

also orbitor that was a classic

You clearly know nothing about Torana's Burt, and it shows.
My SL/R has no rust in it, so I have no idea what you're talking about, secondly.

It's called a new 202 and gearbox and stash the originals away in plastic (thus keep matching numbers).

A new 202 in working order costs about $100, a heavily modified 202 fetches under $1k.
A Heavily modified 202 with the right setup will flog a mild 308 or 355.

202 with Ford 450 Crane Cam, Sleeved, bores out easily over 120 thou I know that for a fact, I've also heard with the right setup and the 450 cam you can get these out to over 265ci (supposedly - but I'm skeptical, then again I've heard of 308's making it out to 355+ odds).
With Triple SU carbies and extractors every cylinder has its own set of lungs, both intake of fuel and exhaust.
Build the engine to bathurst spec and it's going to be going pretty friggin fast for a N/A car.

Have it setup so it can take a turbo or supercharger and I don't know how you'd control it.

Even without the Turbo/Supercharger, it's certainly going to be fast enough to have 'fun' with, and it'll sping through every gear without a problem.

Don't see what fun you need..
Keep tossing burt, you're kidding yourself if you think you could put your car next to an old 70's classic Aussie or American muscle car and get more attention.

Keep trying Burt, pretty soon you'll realise yours is depreciating in value while mine is appreciating.

It hasn't quite clicked yet that yours is still in production and mine isn't, making mine rarer, what happens to things when they become rare? they become worth more.

Oh wait, you havent' caught onto this concept of antiques and collectables yet have you?
I could print off billions of dollars in money, but then what would it be worth? nothing, economy would fall to s*** because there is too much money.

Has it clicked yet? its the same thing with your car.

i didnt buy my car as in investment

i bought my car coz i love driving it

pics or your lieing

hay everybody stop posting in this thread

subwoofers are more important than cars.

until anyone competes with my alpine 300wrms setup, shhhh...


(lol)


also, loki's car owns.

after all that dribble you make no mention of power figures or times, anyone who knows how to type can say what s*** they dream of or what would happen if they did this and that, lets see you take it past that and built this mass weapon of destruction, but you know as well as I do it aint gonna happen because your more talk then action.

it'll sping through every gear without a problem

wow traction problems, that must be fun, you would get some decent times while sitting in the one spot spinning! oh.. but it looks tough, right?

It hasn't quite clicked yet that yours is still in production and mine isn't, making mine rarer, what happens to things when they become rare? they become worth more.

It obviously hasnt clicked that GTR's (or any skyline for that matter) arent in production anymore either moron.

Would you like to dig yourself an even bigger hole? please continue

Hold on burt, maybe you like to work with figures, maybe that's how your ignorance works.

If there's 350,000 skylines in Australia at this very moment, what makes yours so special? there's another 259,999 just like it, maybe all of those aren't in perfect condition, and that makes yours worth more than theres, but with 259,999 other skylines out there, its guaranteed there will be one, if not more in just as good, if not better condition than yours, including those that just drove off the factory floor.

Now, if there are only 90,000 Torana's in Australia at present, which have been around for 30 years and aren't walking off the showroom floor, chances are alot of those have been butchered with modifications, written off, thrashed and s***heaps etc. etc. or suffered the effects of age.
Now, the chances of finding one in mint condition, straight body, original down to the carpet and ball joints with matching numbers is a much more difficult task than finding your Skyline with the same s***.

Yours has more technological s*** that makes it worth more, but the fact is, I buy my Torana at $4k, and in 30 years sell it for $30k, you buy your Skyrice for $40k and in 30 years sell it for $6k.
I'm still seeing a difference here...
ok, more numbers.

In 30 years assume half the Torana's are gone, that leaves 45,000 odd left, again, alot rarer to be seen on the road, for sale, and once again, ones in excellenct/mint condition are going to be even rarer, now if 30,000 of those are replica's and rebuilds that leaves only 10,000 originals (which there are probably actually fewer of but hey this is hypothetical), what does this mean for price? it goes up.
Why? because its rare, people want what other people don't have so they can be different.

Now, what happens if those numbers are lower, say there's only 3 or 4 Torana's left in Australia in total that are in original condition with matching numbers like off the showroom floor, and then only a few hundred/thousand more which are replica's/rebuilds.

It pushes the price even further up.
The chances of me owning the last remaining Torana in Australia is far greater than you owning the last GTR Skyrice is Australia...

But you know, being the person you are, can't handle facts that your just another jock driving 'just another skyline'.
And yep, I'm driving 'just another Torana', only mines original.

And FYI, Torana Nationals hasn't even been held yet, tard.

I've got a pink Hyndai Excel, I wonder how much it will be worth in 30 years time. Reckon it's pretty rare so I might keep it for investment.

Sup?

NISSAN - 3 WINS
1 HR-31/GT-R 1990
2 GT-R 1991, 92

Time for my obligatory "Why did God make Rice cars an Rotaries? Simple really, it was to keep WANKERS out of tuff cars"

Well alright Burt, I can show you where to find a 202 that's been heavily modified that was thrown into a Torana, it was in there for less than a week before they pulled it out because it was too much to handle, it now resides in plastic in a garage.

On slicks you aren't going to have traction problems.
And seeing as that's the only place you REALLY should be using such excessive speed and power, it doesn't matter, right?

I've seen LH's run in the low 12's with just a mild 202 and Turbo, but anything will move with a turbo on it.

I've also seen LH's run 8's with a heavily modded 355.

Anything can be turned into a dragster *cue dragster bus*.
Which is my point exactly.

AFAIK the XU-1's which are bathurst spec Triple Stromburg carbs run 14's, Naturally Aspirated.
Not bad for a 30 year old car naturally aspirated as far as I'm concerned, then you can get bolt on Turbo's anyway.

how about this for figures

my cars worth $40k+, yours is about $4k max.

you rely so heavily on keeping your car for 30 years and so original, yet you drive it around as a daily driver yes?

you think in those 30 years your not going to have one mishap or someone isnt goin to go crashin into your beautiful original car.

heres some advice, dont quit ya job thinkin your gonna retire on ya car

put your 12 second LH on a circuit with my GTR and see how it goes

My comment was just for comedy value.

Nothing wrong with a decent Torana, if that's what you're into.

But let's face it, they're only worth money cause they're rare, old, and have a racing heritage, because other than that they're just obsolete and even a $15K Korean buzzbox will be a more reliable and luxurious vehicle.

I never said I was going to retire on my car?
I intend to hand to keep it and hand it down, therefore I dont really give a f*** what it's worth in years to come.

I'll give my kid a piece of history, a piece of my childhood/teen history and a rare car which you dont see too many of around the streets in GOOD Condition..

oops, brought that rare thing up again.

Also, Burt, my car was driven around
Australia towing a caravan by an 80 year old guy, its been completely rust proofed and well looked after...

My Point? even as a daily driver for an 80 year old guy, it still looked mint condition the day I bought it (the original carpet is f***ing up a bit now thanks to some passengers, but carpet is hardly anything anybody expects to be kept perfect off the factory floor)...
Oh yeah, and the carpet is actually pretty f***in clean for a 30 year old daily driver..

If taken care off, driving daily doesnt mean s***, only a bad thing if you push a rod through the side of the original engine block or something similarly stupid.
And where do I drive to Burt?
3 minutes to work and back, then it sits in a garage, it gets driven to Harry's Diner on Friday nights every so often, then garaged.
Occasionally to VC's house where it'll sit out on the driveway.

I have uni to attend which means I catch the train, it also means I dont have muh money to go out (and thus drive around) alot...
My car averages maybe 5k a day tops, comapred to yours???

oops, sorry, you lose again?

But let's face it, they're only worth money cause they're rare, old, and have a racing heritage, because other than that they're just obsolete and even a $15K Korean buzzbox will be a more reliable and luxurious vehicle.

Basically sums it up.

rare, old, racing hertiage, that's what makes them.
They're reliable enough if looked after, seriously, only 'broken down' twice, once was my old man's fault and costed $0 to fix.
And the other time was a piece of plastic that cost $4 to replace (and snapping the gear rod itself was my fault so cant blame the car), toher than that, water pump ~$20 and starter motor ~$129, in four years, that's not bad.

Oh yeah, and clutch/tyres but they were f***ed when I got em, and the new clutch is a POS, which is again my fault for buying a cheap clutch.

But yes, they're not luxurious or anything like that, but you at least got the point completely :)

moral of the story is loki better not crash his $30k car, cause I can't see too many insurance companies giving it that value.

but yeah ricecars are gay

Feel the bass!

http://members.optusnet.com.au/sunbirdgeek/DSC00126.JPG

nice enclosure you smack tard. free air subs

Bang for Buck! Thats what Loki is trying to say (I think). You have to admit that when a 30 year old car with minimal expense can perform remarkably well when compared to a new/newish vehicle that has had thousands spent on it, you have to wonder !!

Eitherway, I want my BA-XR6 or failing that I'll settle for a new FPR

moral of the story, don't crash the torry loki, cause I can't see an insurance company insuring it for $30k :P

Mongie, you're gay, my car isn't worth $30k.
It's worth like $6k as is atm, and the SL/R 3300's are the quickest dying of the bunch (people dropping V8's into them).

FYI Burt, an Original A9X will fetch over $10k easily.
Probably looking between $10-15k, oh and I -think- they're something like 1984 models (I'm not too up to date on my A9X's)...
Reason? There are very rare (not quite cadillac style rare yet) but I've seen a few go for sale.
In another 30 years they'll probably double if not more, in value.

But hey, No Torana could possibly be worth more than $4k in your books.

*edit* will you asshats read, I never said it was worth $30k, I said in 30 years time it's -possible- it could be worth that much, but more than likely it'll be the A9X's worth that much if not more and I'll only be up to $15-20k.
Its still not much compared to a new car, but when you consider that you purchased it for LESS than what you sell it for, that makes it an investment.

Also, as orbitor said, old, rare, racing history, makes them something 'special'. having one in original factory condition makes my particular car 'special'. Nothing else going for it, that's for sure :)

Bang for Buck!

imports win hands down

no locally released cars even come close

and then again it all depends on your definition of "bang"

Fact is, you're both gay. If you care so much for your cars, go f***ing drive them and leave those of us less romantically involved with our vehicles alone.

Lol Burt, you reckon I have a mail order bride - like you can f***ing talk, you paid $30 000 for an asian car that you seem to love more than any woman.

I reckon anyone who spends so much time and is so obsessed with their car must be sexually insecure. Real men with at least the slightest hint of testosterone are far more interested in women than hunks of metal that you use to drive around.

Also all you f*****s that are so obsessed with certain cars, I put it to you to join the Fab 5 cos it seems that fashion is so important to you....

Also all you f*****s that are so obsessed with certain cars

ahahaha maxe wins :D

Wach cha cha cha cha chaaaa!!!!!!!!

I went 2 years spending all my money on my ex, what a bitch, then she isnt even mature enough to be friends when it ended (abuses me and s*** and then calls me immature one [im the one being friendly/nice/trying to be friends and not saying anything bad about her], pfeh)...

Its a nice change not to have a materialistic bitch of a girlfriend, now I'm simply spending a few $$ on myself, which happens to be on my car.

I think your the one with the insecure issues Anarot, about your women or your sexuality, maybe both.

pistons, whether in torana's or gtr's are for newbs.

My GTR rotary has headers.

My GTR rotary has headers.

You wouldn't happen to own a Mustang 2000 Special Edition would you? With a full zaust system? w00.

Back on track, my car stereo consists of:
1 x stock tape deck
1 x 6" speaker in parcel shelf
1 x 4x6" speaker in the centre dash.
phe4r.

My audio consists of a panasonic mp3 headunit, alpine 6 1/2" splits, eclipse 12" sub and a alpine 250w amp to power it.

Works for me, cheap and sounds good enough for my liking.

my stereo:

2 x 12'inch JL Subwoofers
1 X Alpine Amplifier
JVC MP3 Headunit

new splits x 2(alpine hopefully), soundproofing, stinger wiring and a stinger capacitor coming soon, when i can afford it, and be f***ed spending money on it

I have a head unit and 2 6 x 9's, one of which dosnt work.

My front speakers dont work either.

wow maxe, great system

My current stereo:
-Jensen headunit, 4x15w (piece of s***)
-Sony Explod 6x9's 3 way (decent)

What I got ready to be installed:
-15 inch MTX Sub
-Pioneer headunit, 4x45w
-Boss 850w, 2 channel amp

lolol 4x 15w thats hugeeeeee

boss!? *aww*

brings back bad experiances

lolol 4x 15w thats hugeeeeee

I know :(

boss!? *aww*

I don't really like Boss gear, but this amp was free, and it's a slightly higher model then there cheap units.

i got like a cadence 350amp, 12"JL audio sub, 2 kenwood 6s, vdo headunit, (heaps of output for a cheap headunit). oh and 2x crappy jensen 6s, which i hooked up because it was easier than taking em out.

aint that good, does me though, lookin at investing in some mb quarts splits

Cadence 4x100 running rockford fosgate 12" and front clarion 6"s.
pioneer 7x10s in back powered by an old rocford fosgate amp..crap power, like 100peak...
Nothing fancy, plays music, im happy..
Also, I replaced the parcel tray with mdf, but never carpeted it..looks really bogan. :D

lol so wtg was up with kaths free air subs in an enclosure haha

thats why i said noob but he didnt catch on.. there no point argueing(sp) with someone that knows very little about car sound. i know..

Lol nice one Loki - I'm not the one bitching about women... mine didn't leave me cos I'm not a loser obsessed with cars. Lol you're calling me insecure when its you who is spending hours typing HUGE replies on an internet forum defending yourself and your car! hahahahahaha nice one!

Burt - why do you have such a downer on me and my girl? Did I reject your sexual advances in the past or something?

Maxe - owned!

omg u gays are still crapping on

Lol sorry :)

Umm, my car stereo consists of JVC headunit (that I've had for like 4 years and is still awesome - I definitely recommend JVC for value!), 2 JVC 6x9's up the back and 2 JVC 4"s up the front (all of which I've had for same duration as the head unit). I have a Jaycar Response 4x100w amp running a sony 12" sub off 2 bridged channels and the two 4"s in the front off the other two channels. I'm extremely surprised with the 4inches - they are running full range with 100w of clean power and basically never distort. I think they are getting a little tired of it now though. I think that has a lot to do with my headunit have virtually no signal distortion throughout the volume range. I need new front speakers but overal the system sounds pretty good. Being in a hatch, the sub goes pretty hard (especially with about 300w of clean bench-tested rms power going to it from the response amp!).

spending hours typing HUGE replies on an internet forum defending yourself and your car! hahahahahaha nice one!

hahaha, nice point.

JVC headunit (that I've had for like 4 years and is still awesome - I definitely recommend JVC for value!)

I'll second that big time, me and one of my mates (lazer tx3) have been running our JVC mp3 hu's for ages now without any problems, and they are so cheap compared to other brands, and are still great units

I was given a spare 4 x 35 watt HU Venturer brand I think with Pioneer 6x9's (I got for bday) in the back, does me fine for now and didn't cost me a cent!

JVC head unit, they are pretty funky

Rockforge Fosgate subs 12" x 2 powered by a 150W RMS amp.

I am with Loki. Old skewl cars have thete good points. Car these days are just going to go down in value. My brother has an original VG Valiant Pacer with a 245 mild cam and bit of work done to it. Not only is it quicker then my car it is worth more as well. It done on insurace market value is minimum 15 000 he gets if nething happenes to it and its rising.
